Is Yours a Ecomax?

Advantage Ecomax

Filter Medium Filter medium expected to last 20 years in domestic & commercial-strength applications, and will likely last much longer

Energy Efficient Provides anaerobic treatment passively, requiring up to 100% less power than competing mechanical wastewater technologies ( gravity fed options only)

Low Maintenance No moving parts, no high energy and high maintenance air compressors or air diffusers, maintenance is reduced to a simple diversion of the drains every six

months and does not require a skilled operator or servicing contracts

Maintains high levels of treatment during surge flows, low flows, and seasonal Treatment Consistency use, preventing solids from escaping and potentially clogging the disposal bed

With a permanent filter medium and very low to no power consumption, Ecomax Lowest Long Term Operating Costs Effluent systems cost you less to operate than any other advanced treatment unit

Over summer nitrogen removal is better than 90% in the final effluent

Nitrogen Removal

Developed for the Australian climate! Proven performance in cold climates, Cold Weather Performance

No Aerobic Sludge Management No activated sludge to manage, competing aerated sludge technologies typically require annual pumping to maintain treatment levels

Compact nature requires less area for installation minimizes mounding and tree Small Footprint removal, allows you to increase the use of your property

No Short Circuiting Provides a physical barrier between raw sewage and the environment, even during power outages no untreated sewage enters the environment

Available in many configurations, with one suitable for your preferences, your Wide Product Selection property, and your application.

Engineered & Manufactured in Australia!

Ecomax Effluent Systems are known in the onsite wastewater industry for their outstanding treatment

consistency, longevity, no to low power consumption, and Nitrogen removal capabilities.

Ecomax is the environmentally friendly and cost-efficient wastewater system of choice.

Developed in Australia for Australian conditions, the Ecomax is an advanced alternative tertiary wastewater effluent system (ATU). Its high

performance offers an alternative to standard or mechanical high maintenance wastewater effluent options. Since 1985 the Ecomax has proven itself to be the most reliable advanced effluent treatment system available in Australia.

The Ecomax system is a biological system so it requires little to no maintenance. In most cases it requires no pumps and is non-mechanical, driven

by gravity reducing the risks of mechanical failure.

The key to its success is: No ongoing maintenance costs, smallest foot print, Non-mechanical, No ongoing servicing

4: Construction Membrane

5: Lining with an impervious liner 6: Construction of Ecomax Reo Drains

3: Sand dressed under blanket

7: Backfilling with amended soil 8: Final Shaping of Ecomax Sand Filter Mound

9: Finished amended soil mound

Quality Guaranteed

Significant technical undertaking has gone into the design of the

Ecomax, development and testing of the Ecomax Nutrient

(Phosphate) removal system. This has resulted in a high quality

product which is simple, cost effective, low maintenance and energy

efficient.

How the Ecomax works

The Ecomax Nutrient (Phosphate) Removal

system treats black and grey water combined.

The first stage of the process involves septic

tanks which are used to break down the solid

waste and aid in the reduction of bacteria.

Septic tanks, twin or dual or twin chamber will be

utilized where pre-treatment (sedimentation,

floatation, anaerobic digestion) of wastewater

from the premises occurs.

The wastewater then travels by gravity or pump

into one of the two cells via a diversion valve.

Two Ecomax cells used in rotation each

comprising a storage and leaching vessel in each

leach drain underlain by an impervious

membrane, strategically shaped in reaction to

the geometry of the leach drain by extension of a

perimeter bund to cause effluent to “pool” within

a porous treatment medium and flow through

and out of the process.

The Ecomax Nutrient (Phosphate) Removal

system is an alternating system with a diverter

box which can change the flow of effluent

allowing on half to be shut off. This allows the

unused half to dry out which rejuvenates the

soil’s ability to receive effluent.

Grass cover will assist gas exchange,

evapotranspirative losses and conceal system

within a passive recreation or garden area.
